78: The game between the two sides! The great injustice suffered by the Demon Suppression Division!

Li Shengyuan raised an eyebrow as he looked at Mu Yunxiao's resolute expression.

It seemed like a situation where both sides would suffer!

Li Shengyuan was not afraid of this; after all, he did not have many people, and none of them were weak, so any losses would not be significant.

After Mu Yunxiao made a few requests to Xu Zhiching, the Governor of Jizhou, he smiled and looked at Li Shengyuan.

"Lord Li, after you have gathered the people from the various major sects, could you tell this king the specific plan so that I can make arrangements?"

Li Shengyuan waved his hand indifferently and chuckled, "As long as the strong cultivators from the major sects come, a plan won't be necessary. We just need to push straight through."

"That's true," Mu Yunxiao nodded with a smile.

Tactics are only necessary when forces are evenly matched or slightly inferior. When it's a crushing victory, tactics become secondary.

Just push straight through and crush them!

Then, Mu Yunxiao frowned slightly and said, "Lord Li, are you not afraid that they will run away or prepare in advance by announcing your intentions to deal with the Giant Spirit Hall so openly?"

"The monk may run, but the temple remains. Even if the higher-ups of the Giant Spirit Hall flee, without their foundation, they can only hide and be a group of scattered stragglers who cannot achieve anything great!" Li Shengyuan said indifferently.

"Even if they are prepared, it won't be a concern within two days. Moreover, we have Chief Ye, a Grade Three Spirit Array Master, here. Defensive arrays and such are merely for show!"

Seeing everyone's gaze turn to him, Ye Hangzhou remained calm, his head slightly raised, neither arrogant nor impatient, exuding an aura of confidence.

It was just that this fellow had no idea where he got a fan from, acting like a graceful young nobleman, gently fanning himself, which was quite ostentatious.

Mu Yunxiao withdrew his gaze and looked at Li Shengyuan, smiling, "Since Lord Li is so confident, that's good. It's just that two days might be a bit too rushed."

"Two days are more than enough. Although some sects are a bit far from the Giant Spirit Hall, once the news reaches them today, they can set off immediately and arrive in no time," Li Shengyuan said with an air of nonchalance.

"After all, they only need to provide people and effort; they don't need to make too many preparations. Strong cultivators moving out doesn't take much time."

"If any sect procrastinates or has reservations, they are not qualified to share in the spoils of the Giant Spirit Hall!"

Then, Li Shengyuan stood up, cupped his hands, and said,

"Since the matter has been decided, I, Li, will not disturb His Royal Highness Yanwang and the two Lords from discussing important matters. Farewell!"

After speaking, Li Shengyuan clasped his hands behind his back and led Ye Hangzhou and the others out of the discussion hall.

Watching Li Shengyuan and the others leave, Mu Yunxiao and the others fell silent for a moment.

A moment later, the burly Zhou Bing spoke in a booming voice,

"Your Highness, this Li Shengyuan is truly cunning. With people from the other seven major sects and even some smaller sects present, what should we do now?"

A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Mu Yunxiao's mouth, "Isn't it better when there are many eyes and ears?"

"After all, it's very normal for someone to suffer an unbearable blow during a chaotic battle!"

Upon hearing this, a cruel smile also appeared on Zhou Bing's face, "Your Highness is right. By then, with that young brat's cultivation, he won't even know how he died!"

Mu Yunxiao nodded with a smile, then sighed,

"I just don't know how many people will die this time..."

Seeing Mu Yunxiao become a bit melancholic, Zhou Bing very appropriately stepped forward and respectfully explained,

"A general's success is built upon ten thousand bones. To achieve an everlasting empire, there must always be sacrifices, so Your Highness need not worry."

"Yes, there must always be sacrifices..."

Mu Yunxiao nodded with deep eyes. Zhou Bing was right; to complete his everlasting empire, anyone could be sacrificed!

At this moment, following Li Shengyuan's announcement that anyone with a grievance could seek him for redress that morning, the Demon Suppression Division branch in Yanwang City suddenly became lively.

Of course, he couldn't handle everything. The vast majority of cases were fairly judged by his subordinate Demon Suppression Envoys.

Only for extremely egregious cases would he or the three Golden Uniform by his side take action.

Moreover, to prevent people from joining in just for fun and wasting time and energy, Li Shengyuan also announced that anyone who made a false accusation would ultimately be held equally accountable for the crime!

This made those who wanted to file a complaint weigh their options. Only they themselves knew whether it was a false accusation, but the Demon Suppression Division's judgment was no joke. If caught, they would face severe consequences!

Furthermore, they only handled criminal cases and were not responsible for civil disputes, which significantly reduced the number of complainants.

Let it be tiring; this period was a great opportunity for them to regain the hearts of the people in the Northern Territory.

Only if the people's hearts in the Northern Territory remained strong would the Northern Territory not fall into great chaos after the Yanwang Rebellion was quelled.

At this moment, Li Shengyuan was leading Ye Hangzhou and the others to the Demon Suppression Division branch in Yanwang City.

He received a message from his subordinates that a colossal injustice required his personal decision, which made him somewhat curious...

Just how great was the grievance that the Demon Suppression Envoys couldn't handle it and required his personal intervention?

Liu Zhen followed leisurely behind and asked,

"The operation against the Giant Spirit Hall is the day after tomorrow. Are we departing tomorrow?"

"We leave tonight!" Li Shengyuan said calmly.

Liu Zhen and the others said with some surprise, "Tonight?"

Li Shengyuan nodded, "That's right, but it needs to be done quietly. At that time, Chief Ye will need to activate the isolation array and the teleportation array!"

Ye Hangzhou, with a detached expression, gently fanned himself and nodded slightly, as if to say, 'Leave it to me.'

If an outsider who didn't know his situation saw him, who would have thought that this guy was only pretending to be aloof because he wasn't good with words...?

And it's true, he does exude an air of distance. But why do we four Golden Uniform look like bodyguards for a charming young master?

Li Shengyuan glanced at Ye Hangzhou and secretly complained.

Not long after, the group arrived at the Demon Suppression Division branch, where it was already packed with people.

It wasn't until a Demon Suppression Envoy loudly proclaimed, "Lord Li has arrived!" that the crowd parted to form a path.

Everyone looked at Li Shengyuan with fervent gazes, and he responded with a smile, enjoying the treatment of an emperor on an incognito tour.

At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted,

"Long live the Just and Upright Official!"

Before the words had even faded, waves of cheers erupted, one after another.

Li Shengyuan's scalp tingled from the sheer enthusiasm.

Arriving at the entrance of the Town Demon Bureau, Li Shengyuan turned to face everyone and loudly declared with a serious expression,

"Long live the people!"

After speaking, Li Shengyuan ignored the fervent cheers of the Yanwang City citizens and entered the Demon Suppression Division's public hall.

When they heard Li Shengyuan's four words, everyone present was stunned for a moment. They had never heard this phrase in their lives!

After carefully pondering it, everyone erupted into deafening cheers.

At this moment, everyone's fervent devotion to Li Shengyuan reached its peak!

Only those who had suffered oppression understood the profound meaning of these words!

It was a pity that even on Blue Star, these four words were but a fleeting phenomenon...

At this time, the citizens of Yanwang City surged towards the Town Demon Bureau, one after another, wanting to see Li Shengyuan.

At this moment, Li Shengyuan was a saint in their eyes!

If it weren't for the strong cultivation of the Demon Suppression Envoys, who managed to hold back the crowd, the Town Demon Bureau would likely have been overrun by the citizens of Yanwang City today.

Facing the fervent citizens of Yanwang City, the Demon Suppression Envoys guarding the entrance secretly groaned.

But in their hearts, they were also genuinely shocked by Li Shengyuan's four words!
